ASKED CAPTAINS SOURCE OF
INFORMATION
While in my opinion it was futile to
ask the captains as to the source and
through what medium orders for the
crippling of their vessels were re
ceived by them. I nevertheless did so.
and although mostly an evasive an
swer was given, aome of the captains
stated to me after the meeting that
orders were received by them direct
through cable. ' -
As to the position which was taken
by mo in connection with these ves

remarks from the stenographic report
of the same conversation held with
Superintendent " Forbes on March .

Deals With Grasshof Diary References
On the front page of your paper of
Thursday, i i)ecember 13th, another
article appeared, indicating in . big
headlines that I was implicated, with
others, .through the .diary of Captain
Grasshof, ther particular point being
that I had information concerning

the representatives' of the "steamer at
Yokohama to have all of the consign
ments transhipped at Honolulu into
a steamer of tbeN Toy Risen Kalsha.

; The captain of, the S. 8. "Hoisatia"
oil receiving Jils instructions for the
fcrwarding of alt of the cargo aboard,
and In view of a declaration publish
ed by the German government, after
the outbreak of war iri Europe speci
fying certain merchandise as contra
band cargo,' deemed It advisable and
necessary to 'consult with the German
consulate at Honolulu as to authority
fordelivering the above specified lots.
On being informed of hla procedure, I
advised the captain that irrespective
of any decision which might be given
by the German consulate here I would
have to insist upon delivery of the en
tire cargo tol the Japanese steamer,
giving as my reason, that the repre
sentatives of the owners of the ves
sel in Japan who had made arrange
ments for the transhipment of this
cargo at Honolulu and delivery to
original consignees at destination, had
undoubtedly considered the question'!
of Contraband from all angles, and
that the fact of the guna not being
excepted from transhipment was suf
ficient proof to me that no consign
ments should be withheld. The con
sulate, decided, '' however,; that ? the
above mentioned cargo coming under
the classification of contraband should
hot be delivered 7 to the connecting
steamer, but should be held aboard
the 8. S.' "HolsatiaV and Issued In

URGES CONSULATE TO RELEASE
7 SHIPMENT 7; i-..- .
Commencing, about the middle of
March, 1915, the consignees, a Japan
ese firm in Japan, through the me
dium of the Japanese . consulate la
Honolulu, tried again to obtain deliv
ery of their consignments. . In the
course of the negotiations, which last
ed until beginning of July, 1915, 1 . re
peatedly ; endeavored to convince the
German consulate at Honolulu how fu
tile it was to hold this small parcel,
urging release and forwarding to des
tination ia order to have the mAtter
disposed of. : ' ':r . ;'
v AM my dealings in this matter were,
to the best of my recollection, strictly
confined to the German consulate
and the captain of tie S. S. "Holsa
tia," and I do not believe, notwith
standing the remarka in hla diary,
that f ever did hava a conversation
on the aubject with Captain Grasshof,
I do remember, however, that' during
the negotiations, and in my anxiety
to obtain this cargo for transhipment
to destination. I called the attention
of .the consulate officials to the fact
that In my opinion tho S. S.'"Hol8a-tia,-lying
in a neutral port, 'had no
business whatsoever to withhold ear

FACTS ON ; FILE AT CUSTOM
r. house aa. i
While your article makea U appear
as If this transaction waa handled bj
me in a; very-, underhanded nianner, 1
can only state that the papers on Iil4
in the United States Custom House
at Honolulu will show that the cargo,
including the above named 25 park
ages, on board the S. S.'Holsatia was
specified in every particular, nothing
whatsoever being omitted, and every
thing was done to handle the transfer
in a proper manner, notwithstanding
the arduous work it required to ef
fect such transfer,. As explained
above, the only point which did arise
at the time was a difference of opin
ion as to whether these cases con
taining shotguns, - empty cartridges,
etc., should be considered as contra
band cargo, as claimed by the captain
of the vessel and his consulate, or ,as
general merchandise, to be. tran
shipped at a neutral port, as claim el
by myself.
HANDLING OF GERMAN STEAM
ERS A few facts concerning the handling
of the German steamera at Honolulu
and tne transaction of business con
nected with them through my medium,
well known to United States and ter
ritorial officials, are, I believe, proper
at this time to be mentioned.
After the arrest of the crews of two
of the steamers on February 4, 1917,
and the receipt of orders tor the in
ternment of the crews of the balance
of the vessels I assisted the United
States officials in every way possible
in order to bring about the transfer of
the crews from the vessels to the immi
gration station with the least delay ant!
annoyance to all parties concerned,
which assistance was rendered by me,
aa I found out afterward, apparently
so efficiently that complaints were
filed by some of the members of tha
crews with the German consulate in
dicating that I was the one responsi
ble for their, internment at the immi
gration station at Honolulu. r
TELLS OF GRASSHOF INTERVIEW
I also remember having gone aboard
the Geier, accompanied by Mr. Schro
der, one day, I beaeve in February,
1916, to interview Captain Grasshof
about the following matter: Several oi
the captains of the German merchant
vessels reported bo me that Grasshof
had sent instructions to them not to
hoist the flags overtop on their vessels
(dress ship) In participation of the
celebration of a certain holiday,' and
asced my advice. Being unable to un
derstand the reason for such message
from him, I took the matter up with
the consulate, who, not having heard
about it, suggested that 1 had-better
interview Captain Grasshof myseli.
On arriving on board the Geier and
laying the matter before him 'he in
formed mo that he had sent an officer
to the German Interned vessels with
the' notification that the Geier would
not hoist the flags over top . (dress
ship) on that " particular day on account-
of a : misunderstanding .whicn
had not been cleared up. I immedi
ately informed 7 him that whatever
personal grievances existed ; between
him and -others should Ini'iny opinion
not be 'extended to' the German,'rAer
chant vessels, as the latter had, ever
since their arrival at Honolulu, been
treated by everybody concerned in the
most considerate manner, an that I
would have to advise the ; masters of
the various vessels to join in the eel?

flags on the vessels, which was ac

COURT ORDERS
INVESTIGATION
ALLEN ESTATE
Attorney Breckons Named to
Probe Alleged Derelictions
on Part of Trustees
Attorney" Robert W. Breckons has
been appointed by Circuit Judge C. W.
Ash ford as a special master to inves
tigate" what appears to be certain
faults of administration and derelic
tions of duty on the part of the trus
tees of the estate of the late Bath
sheba M. Allen. Attorney Breckons
has - also been commissioned to in
quire into the report of the Audit
Company of Hawaii, which wss ap
pointed master to examine the recent
annual accounts of the trustees.
Judge Ashford, in summlning up the
circumstances calling for the Investi
gation, says that the trustees of the
estate declined and neglected to give
certain information concerning the
assets of the estate and that, because
of this,, the master was put to a great
deal of trouble corresponding with cor
porations abroad to ascertain the in
formation needed.
In an order which has been issued
by Judge Ashford, Attorney Breckons
is requested to inquire into the al
leged faults of administration on the
part of the trustees. The special mas
ter, is to make recommendations to
the court If the conditions alleged in
the order are found to exist. He is
also requested to inquire into the rea
sons fpr the delay of the audit
company in reporting to the court on
the accounts of the trustees "and to
what extent, if any, the audit com
pany, as such master, has been guilty
of neglect or other default in the
premises."
If neglects or defaults are found,
the special master Is to report them
to the court with recommendations as
to the penalty that should be meted
out to the audit company, the order
concludes.
Further accounts of the trustees of
the estate, filed recently, have been
referred to H. Gooding Field, expert
statistician, instead of .the Audit Com
pany of Hawaii. ,

ings. - " 7
' The following matters were brought
before the board and investigated:
Disturbance at Moving Picture Show,
Evening of November 22
"This was caused by enlisted men
crowding and persisting in looking over
the canvas walls. The officer of the
day had one man placed under arrest
and taken to the guardhouse. A crowd
followed. In the vicinity of the guard
house the officer heard someone say.
They are going to mob the guard.
"He ordered the crowd to halt" and
disperse, which they did. At 7:45 As
sembly was blown and a check of each
company made at 8 p. m.
."Reports were received from all or
ganizations that all. were present and
accounted for with the exception of
five men who were subsequently lo
cated in the vicinity of the camp. These
men had nothing to do with the dis
turbance. Amusements After Officers' Lectures
"Band concerts, boxing and wrestl
ing were held in the officers' mess tent,
resulting in a lack, of proper decorum
and in one-instance the breaking of
an officers' mess table.
. "At one of these entertainments a
hula' dance by men was permitted
which resulted in a great deal of un
favorable criticism. In one instance
the entertainment was allowed to con
tinue after taps at 9:30 o'clock. This
waa permitted by the camp com
mander.
Disturbance at Inter-Island Wharf
The testimony shows that the re
ports concerning this matter have been
greatly exaggerated. Permission was
given men by the officer in charge to
leave the steamer and the contingent
embarked prior to the departure of the
vessel in good order. The men re
turned at the call or 'Assembly.'
"It is found that ample subsistence
waa provided under the direct super
vision of the regular instructor for all
troops from Camp Liliuokalani to the
time they would reach their home sta
tions. Gambling
The testimony shows that gambling
was indulged in to a small extent in
the camp. Several officers played
cferds for small stakes after the lec
tures were over. Testimony shows
that this in no way interfered with
their military duties.
"Among the enlisted men games of
chance were indulged in to a small
degree after the troops were paid. The
testimony shows that whenever this
came to the attention of officers it
was promptly suppressed.
Use of Liquor
"The testimony shows that liquor
was used in small quantities. In no
case was this found to be among en
listed men. During the entire en
campment no case cf intoxication has
been determined
Prostitution in Camp
"The testimony shows that no wo
men of doubtful character were in the
camp at any time.

"Dissatisfaction was ' caused by , the

tial Proclamation Here:-
- i. '.....- ' '
That the board of harbor coram!
sloners should Issue a regulation bar
ring all 'unauthorized persona from all
wharvea and piers in the territory, is
the; opinion of District Attorney S, C
Huber, who says, he would welcome
such tn action. He would also wel
come, he adds, a federal regulation
karring alien enemies from piers and
wharves in Hawaii, but feele that the
order by the harbor board would be
much more satisfactory in every way,'
and provide a greater measure of
atfety for the community. . , 7
jAlien enemies are not how tarred
fiom entering wharvea and piers hire
has already been pointed out by
the Star-Bulletin, although most of the
harvea are carefully : guarded. The
proclamation recently issued by the
.president barring aliens from wharves
and piers on the mainland has evK
dently not been made applicable to
Hawaii, as Attorney Huber his rt
ceived no Instructions tor" enforce ft
here. Hs is of the opinion that these
rules were promulgated because ot
the recent explosions and destruction
of property on the Atlantic and Pa
cific coasts, apparently tfresult of
German plots.- -. V!--r ."!'!
ab Aicorney tiuoer nas no author- :
Ity to issue regulations barring alien
I from wharves and piers, he declared
I today that he hones the harbor board
J will make an order not only, barring
I aliens, but barring all other persons,
I so thst only-offlclala and other ae
credited persons miy ,be on. the
wharves when vessels arrive or, de
part.
In this connection he points out that
an alien enemy, or - the tool 7ot77an
enemy nation, intent upon planting a
I bomb on a local wharf of doing otherj-
damage, would not go to a pier alone, A
would select a time when he could
work in a crowd. This, adds Mr. Hub
er, would give him an excellent op
portunity to carry in a suitcase or bo
containing sv time bomb or other ex
plosive., 7 - :7
